MK2 REAR BUMPER, BLACK, EXCELLENT CONDITION
Hi - I've a mk2 rear bumper, black, excellent condition. It came from a Jasper Conran but I assume it will fit any mk2. It has a very slight mark (hardly noticeable) about 1"" on a lip from storage but otherwise it's in great nick. No sensible offer refused, and it would need collecting fr...

Re: Being a Mender (or what you have done for another MX5 ow
Not what I've done, but what Mazda Mender did for me. Last year he helped me get 'Shrek', 2005 plate Arctic 1.8. So this 8 year old car went through it's MOT yesterday, and passed with flying colours, not even an advisory. First MX5, so I can put up with the crazy seats and other "quirks" ...

Re: Have You Owned Other Make Convertibles?
I had an MGF until recently. Then Wayne got in touch........... Glad you saw the light! How many head gaskets did you get through? :wink: A couple, but to be honest it was an attempt by the so called MG experts to solve a problem that was eventually cured by a £10 bottle of K-seal!!! I'm one of the...

Re: Not brilliant at starting
That's a good tip. Assuming it is a sensor that's causing this hot start issue, would an OBD2 reader spot it and are all OBD2 readers okay. The reason I ask is that I thought of getting one because I like gadgets!!! I saw this one http://www.amazon.co.uk/Maxiscan-Diagnostic-Scanner-Reader-MS300/dp/B...

Hi, that must have been you that I saw leaving then around midday in a very nice silver Mk 2.5? I had just arrived to pick up my eunos from Carl who has done an absolutely cracking job on it. :-D Hi, yes that was me. Cheers for the comments, it is nice innit! The only thing that lets it down is thi...

Re: Not brilliant at starting
Just got back from Carl in Nelson, having had the sills wax oiled. Top bloke, really knows his stuff, did a great job and charged me not much at all. I went for Morrisons big breakfast while he did it, so all in all a good morning, thanks M-m for the recommendation, I will use him again. M-m recomme...

I spoke to Carl just now and I'm getting some dates sorted. In the meantime is there anything electrical that I can check simply and quickly?

Not brilliant at starting
I've already mentioned this to the Main Mazda Mender Meister, but I can't get over to see him for a while, so looking for tips before then. Arctic 1.8i 2005 serviced yearly and a little cracker, only 24 k on the clock, 3k every year, garaged. I've had it about a month and I will drive it more, but i...

Now where's that jetwash.
P.S. no need to worry about the pine needles. Just got home to find out that the neighbour has cut the tree down. Must be MX5 magic!!!

Re: From MGF to MX5
HI M-m Wheel arches done in smooth Hammerite (silver) so last few questions...... 1) does it need a second coat 2) it's not a perfect colour match, can I buy genuine sunlight silver (can not spray) anywhere to finish it off 3) is there anything else I need to do to stop the ruddy rust returning Chee...

Re: From MGF to MX5
I thought they had been removed, but I've found the original one which is "mx5 not as good as I thought". I've changed various sign ins so thats where the confusion has come from. "They" have left all the posts on, so no conspiracy I'm afraid. Glad to hear you've had a busy day, ...

Re: From MGF to MX5
Cheers, I got all the right words, but not necessarily in the right order :lol: Forgot to ask if I paint it inside the arch as well, or just the outside face? Don't mind admitting when I need help and this is one of those times. By the way, I was laughing all the way home remembering your face when ...

Re: From MGF to MX5
Nice to see you M-m this weekend and thanks for the job you did on the arches. What was the name of the paint you said to get? Was it silver-brite or hammerite (or will either do). Oh, and the front offside was down to 14psi again when I got home so back to the garage on Monday. Useless set of t*sse...
